Hindu Fasts & Festivals

By Paramahamsa Swami Sivananda

We celebrate the festivals and enjoy the holidays but not many know the significance of the festival and fewer still know how to celebrate it and the rituals involved. There are too many folklore tales and books giving contradictory and inaccurate information. What I am putting in the following pages is from the book written by Paramahamsa Swamy Sivananda – one of the greatest yogis India has produced. Nothing can be better than the guidance given by a great God-realised Paramahamsa like him. The book is published by the Devine Life Society Hrishikesh.

Other festivals: Akshaya Tritiya – Lord Parashurama’s birth day

You can help us!

Today this one man operated website has 250 Vedic scriptures online. Plus 17 major Sashtras of astrology, 200 MP3 Stotras and the 4 Vedas in MP3. All this and plenty more are given freely. A good part of the money earned by this site goes to support the three charitable causes - Scriptures for the blind , helping the slum children of Delhi and helping a Gurukul Vedasala. The space occupied by these audio files and their monthly usage bandwidth is in Gigabytes and costs me a pile. If you like the work I am doing, please feel free to make a donation. Your continued donations will keep this site running and help in expanding.

Thank you
